How to Manage Weeds and Keep Your Farm Clean

Using Wheat Critters for Weed Control

Weeds spread naturally and choke out your crops. Wheat Critters are your primary defense.

Steps:

1. Grow wheat until it spawns a Wheat Critter

2. Place the critter in areas where weeds appear

3. The Wheat Critter will automatically break weeds and dead bushes

4. Deploy multiple Wheat Critters across large farms for better coverage

5. Feed them Farmer's Treat occasionally to keep them active

Preventing Weed Spread

Be cautious with wild critters—some spread weeds or destroy crops:

  • Poisonous Potato Critters are wild and dangerous; remove them or keep them far from your farm
  • Nether Wart Critters explode when wild; tame them immediately with Farmer's Treat
  • Tamed versions of dangerous critters become safe and useful

Soil Preparation

While Wheat Critters clean weeds, use other critters to prepare soil:

  • Carrot Critters convert dirt into farmland
  • Beetroot Critters convert rooted dirt into regular dirt
  • Potato Critters convert coarse dirt into dirt

This keeps your farm organized and ready for planting.
